Bio-inspired Model of Humanoid Robot for Ascending Movement.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Stair climbing is one of the important daily life activities that biped robots have to carry out. However, the number of researches study the ascending movement mechanisms and its stability is low. In this study, we have inspired by human ascending m...

Characterization of Helical Propulsion Inside In Vitro and Ex Vivo Models of a Rabbit Aorta.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In this work, the propulsion of a helical robot is experimentally characterized inside whole blood (in vitro model) and against the flowing streams of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) inside rabbit aorta (ex vivo model). The helical robot is magnetica...

Integration of Forearm sEMG Signals with IMU Sensors for Trajectory Planning and Control of Assistive Robotic Arm.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Patients with issues such as cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury, and multiple sclerosis have difficulties with activities of daily living (ADL). Their abilities to perform tasks can be improved through vigorous physical therapy. When that therapy is ...

Kinematic Redundancy Analysis during Goal-Directed Motion for Trajectory Planning of an Upper-Limb Exoskeleton Robot.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The kinematic redundancy of human arm imposes challenges on joint space trajectory planning for upper-limb rehabilitation robot. This paper aims to investigate normal motion patterns in reaching and reach-to-grasp movements, and obtain the unique sol...

Classification of Rehabilitation Participation in Elderly In-patients with Mild Cognitive Impairments Utilizing Physiological Responses.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
This study investigated the possibility of utilising physiological responses and machine learning techniques to determine the degree of participation of in-patients with mild cognitive impairment at rehabilitation institutions. Physiological signals ...

EEG-Based Classification of Olfactory Response to Pleasant Stimuli.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Olfactory perception involves complex processing distributed along several cortical and sub-cortical regions in the brain. Although several studies have shown that the power spectra of the electroencephalography (EEG) contain information that can be ...

Automatic detection of High Frequency Oscillations (80-500Hz) based on Convolutional Neural Network in Human Intracerebral Electroencephalogram.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Recently, high-frequency oscillations (HFOs) of range 80-500 Hz in electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings of epilepsy patients are considered as a reliable marker of epileptic seizure. In the present work, an automatic detection of HFOs represents an ...

Synergy-Based Myocontrol of a Multiple Degree-of-Freedom Humanoid Robot for Functional Tasks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In the context of sensor-based human-robot interaction, a particularly promising solution is represented by myoelectric control schemes based on synergy-derived signals. We developed and tested on healthy subjects a synergy-based control to achieve s...

A Recurrent Neural Network for Hand Gesture Recognition based on Accelerometer Data.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
For many applications, hand gesture recognition systems that rely on biosignal data exclusively are mandatory. Usually, theses systems have to be affordable, reliable as well as mobile. The hand is moved due to muscle contractions that cause motions ...

SnoreNet: Detecting Snore Events from Raw Sound Recordings.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Snoring is one of the earliest symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS). Snore detection is the first step in developing non-invasive, low-cost, and totally sound-based OSAHS analysis approaches. In this work, we propose a simple...
